Spoke to Dad by phone!

Finally was able to call Dad with correct telephone no. late June 16th here, and June 17th there.
Had to be a quick conversation as Dad and Alex were in middle of "bowing ceremony"!
Willem feeling fine with time change, Alex shoud be okay in another day Dad says (his body still wants to fall alseep at 18:00 and awake at 04:00)
Their home-stay family is awesome, even including co-travellers parents travelling singly Lisa (with Liam) and Janet (with Leevi) for dinners and whose blogs are included in our blog (I check their blogs too to get more details about the trip!;). the home-stay family have 3 children of their own that Alex is having much fun with, aged 10, 14, and 17 in Korean years (substract about 2 years for actual years since birth). The 17-year old speaks English very well, making their stay that much more meaningful, I'm sure. With Korean homes being traditionally much smaller due to their great population (10 million in Seoul, 18 million counting greater Seoul area), I don't know how they managed to fit extra guests!? Dad and Alex sleep together in single bed in daughter's bedroom, even though there is a traditional Korean floor mattress/pad for one of them.
The trio singly travelling parents and boys (Liam and Leevi being 8-years old) are apparently together all the time. I'll have to think of a knickname for them!;)
All have battery chargers that won't work well (See Leevi's blog about how Mom practically burned host's house down. Ha, ha! Pics of her black hand to follow soon!?;). Nintendo DS's are going down. See, you can have fun without those addictive gadgets!;)
Thanks to followers and your comments, Julie. Makes the blog more interesting - whenever Dad and Alex can get to theri blog more!;)
